... at least I believe mine do. With the fall crisp breeze in the air and the clean air, my plants are standing upright and looking good. They also seem to grow a little faster then in the hot humid air.
Do yours perform better in the fall?

Shawn, my outdoor plants look crisper and happier than they have ever been. I even have coleus and impatiens in a protected area still looking beautuful.
The peppers, Chinese cabbage, kale and marigolds look especially perky. The dusty millers have grown into giants. And I will be dehydrating lots of peppers soon.
We are having a glorious fall. I hope these lovely days hang around for a while. My mood is so dependent on the weather.

I deleted my previous post . I thought you were referring to AG plants(I read it at a glance). My big Shastas came up last week and are doing well. They open in fall. But the spring summer plants are on their way out. I tossed most of the other plants because they were all laying on top of the soil...root ball and all. Tomorrow it will be narrowed down even further. But inside with no hot humidity the AG projects are grand , especially the lettuce.

LOL @cornne. I was talking indoor AG's. But outdoor is good too. Remember I am not an outdoor grower . I found all my AG's growing better . My one outdoor plant is doing well too.

Ha! I misread it, too! I guess I was so carried away by the beautiful weather outside that was what I was thinking of.
My AG peppers and tomatoes look beautiful. My beans look scraggly.

I'm in CA, and it has been too hot for my larger tomato plants (growing indoors)... they've been curling and dropping flowers. I'm hoping the last of our heat waves is over, and that they'll start to flourish now. My little cherry tomato plants are impervious to the heat, and are fruiting and flowering all over the place.
I'm a new gardener.

Nice to see you jump in I look forward to hearing and seeing more of your projects.
